Description: |
A slide on the parallel shafts of the handle drives a helical screw which moves the adjustable jaw; a modified version of this arrangement appears in patent no. 1,728,282.
These patents were produced as nut and pipe wrenches styled the EVANS ZIP-GRIP, with markings implying operations at Fall River, Mass. and Los Angeles, CA. Searches for ads, public records documenting business activities, etc. do not bring up much except a 1929 mention of formation of an EVANS WRENCH Co. |
